An Overview of Foodborne Risks in Afghanistan

Food Safety and Health, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Foodborne diseases represent a serious yet underrecognized public health burden in Afghanistan, a country shaped by decades of conflict, weak infrastructure, and limited regulatory capacity. This article provides a comprehensive overview of major foodborne risks in the country, including microbiological hazards, chemical contaminants, and ...

Susceptibility of Campylobacter jejuni and Campylobacter coli to macrolides and related compounds [PDF]

Antimicrobial Agents and Chemotherapy, 1985
The susceptibility of 105 thermophilic campylobacters from human and swine origins to eight macrolides and related compounds was tested. Erythromycin, josamycin, clindamycin, and ASE 136 BS (a new erythromycin derivative) were the most active against the human strains. The swine strains were highly resistant, except to pristinamycin.

Quantifying Transmission of Campylobacter jejuni in Commercial Broiler Flocks [PDF]

, 2009
Since meat from poultry colonized with Campylobacter spp. is a major cause of bacterial gastroenteritis, human exposure should be reduced by, among other things, prevention of colonization of broiler flocks.

Chicken‐linked multidrug‐resistant Campylobacter jejuni infections among Chinese children

iMetaOmics, EarlyView.
Campylobacter is a leading cause of pediatric diarrhea, but its genomic epidemiology and antimicrobial resistance in China remain poorly defined. We conducted genomic surveillance of 3492 children with diarrhea in two pediatric hospitals in Zhejiang Province in 2017, 2018, and 2021, combining culture, whole‐genome sequencing, and source‐attribution ...

Occurrence and antimicrobial resistance of Campylobacter jejuni and Campylobacter coli isolated from domestic animals from Southern Ecuador

Ciência Rural, 2018
: Occurrence and antimicrobial resistance profiles of Campylobacter jejuni and C. coli strains isolated from fecal samples of dogs, pigs, cows and hens in southern Ecuador were studied. Of the 250 samples studied, 84 (33.6%) were Campylobacter positive,

Antibacterial activities of nitrothiazole against Campylobacter jejuni and Campylobacter coli [PDF]

Antimicrobial Agents and Chemotherapy, 1984
Niridazole (Ambilhar) and three other newly synthesized nitrothiazole derivatives were highly active against 19 microaerophilic campylobacters (minimum concentration required to inhibit 50% of strains [MIC50], 0.0075 to 0.015 mg/liter). There were, however, considerable differences in the susceptibility among strains tested, and one nitrothiazole ...

Nutritional and environmental determinants of maturation and disruption of the early life gut microbiome: A narrative review

Journal of Parenteral and Enteral Nutrition, EarlyView.
Abstract The first 1000 days of life represent a critical window for gut microbiome assembly, with lifelong implications for child growth, immune development, and disease risk. This review synthesizes evidence on maternal, perinatal, and especially nutritional factors that influence early‐life intestinal colonization and highlights the consequences of ...
